setst777 said: I am going to believe what God actually revealed to us for us to understand. If you really believed that, then you would not ignore or reject God's own explanation of who he forms persons and nations in "Jeremiah 18." Just as God is teaching in "Jeremiah 18," God likewise...

You are replying to a strawman, not me. I believe God was intimately involved with Joseph's rescue, and aligned the events to occur to bring about His purpose. However, whether God caused the famine, we do not know, nor is knowing this relevant to my objection as to whether God created mankind...

Did God merely foresee what Satan would do, or did God create Satan to do what he does? Did God foresee what Satan would do, or did God cause all the choices Satan made? I am going to believe what God actually revealed to us for us to understand. This is more than a story, but is an...

Regarding God's plans, God will indeed have mercy on all those who repent, for God will have mercy on whom he wills to have mercy. In his mercy, God's kind intention is to save all those who believe (John 3:16). 1 Corinthians 1:21 (EWEB) 21 For seeing that in the wisdom of God, the world...

setst777 said: No, the point is that you are in error. Job was faithful because he chose to be faithful. When you say, "Okay," you are already admitting that God does not fore-CAUSE humans to do good or evil; rather, each person does evil or good by their own free will. God was not created...

Read the context from which Paul is quoting from. Romans 9:6-18 6 But it is not as though the word of God has come to nothing. For they are not all Israel that are of Israel Note: Only by the Faith of Abraham is a person a true Israelite [Romans 4:16]. Romans 4:16 …the promise comes by...

No, the point is that you are in error. Job was faithful because he chose to be faithful. Regarding Satan, you are again in error. God did not cause Satan to test God; rather, God allowed Satan to chastise Job to show Satan that mankind can and will trust in God, even if God takes away his...

Notice that, in Job, God did not create Job to be faithful; rather, God praised Job before Satan as being a man who truly trusted in God. Satan was not convinced that Job was, of his own doing, faithful to God; so Satan tested God saying to God to take away His hedge of protection around Job...

If you want to understand what Paul actually explained, then you have to read His Epistles from start to finish, just as you would read any letter or book; because taking quotes from one place in a letter, or another place, out of their context, and then supplying your own opinion as to what you...

The word "come" is a term Lord Jesus frequently uses in his teaching to the people, and means that, those believing in him will come to him, and those who do not believe in him will not come to him to be saved (Matthew 11:28; Matthew 16:24; Mark 8:34; Mark 10:21; Luke 6:47; Luke 9:23; Luke...

All of TULIP is founded on the Calvinist doctrine of the Sovereignty of God, of which all forms of orthodox Calvinism define as theological determinism, which means that: Every event in the world, whether "First-Cause," "other causes," and "immediate causes," they are all planned and...

Good question! From the Father are all things through His Word and Spirit - they are all ONE, but positionally, the Father is the Head, and God has a Spirit, and His Word, who both proceed from Himself to manifest himself, and to do all things.

There exists only One God the Father, but as Scripture teaches us, God’s nature includes His Word and His Spirit by whom God accomplishes all that God alone does for his own glory. God’s Word and God’s Spirit are both “God” in very nature because they proceed forth from God, and are sent out...

The "dead" are those whose spirits have separated from their bodies, just as Stephen's spirit was at his stoning, or Lord Jesus (the incarnate Word of God) at his crucifixion. Naturally, the "dead" have nothing more to do with this physical life in the physical world since their bodies are...

You didn't quote what I wrote; rather, you quoted part of the Scripture verse as follows: Colossians 1:18-20 (WEB) 18 He is the head of the body, the assembly, who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, that in all things he might have the preeminence. 19 For all the fullness was...

I never wrote that. That is you slandering me again. You are a real low-life. No one on this board believes that Satan and his demons will be saved. Those are your words. You are attacking others with false accusations. Don't act as if you are innocent. My messages speak for themselves...

Strawman argument. No one on this board, nor myself, has ever said that Satan and the demons will be saved. Three times now I denied your accusation and explained my position; yet, you knowingly slander me. Twice before you used this same argument, and both times I stated my position; yet...

Since Lord Jesus is both God and man, the blood of the cross is sufficient to reconcile both the things in heaven and on earth to himself - for the angels and men are both servants of Lord Jesus. By the blood of the cross the things in heaven and the things on earth will be reconciled to God -...

True, the implied conclusion of what all the Scriptures reveal to us about the angels indicates that they were created in the Image of God. The reason that the Scriptures do not teach us fully about the angels, God's plan for angels, and the invisible realm of God, is because the purpose of the...

Can you show me in the Scriptures where man is more valuable than angels to God? Can you show me by Scripture that angels can never repent and be forgiven? Can you show me, by Scripture that angels have no savior? Can you show me the Scriptures that teach that angels are not created in God's...
